Problem: A Generic Trunking (GEC/FEC) 802.3ad-Draft Static type of 
team may lose some network connectivity if the driver to a team member is 
disabled. 
Solution: If a team member supports underlying management software 
(ASF/IPMI/UMP) or Wake-On-LAN, the link may be maintained on the 
switch for the adapter despite its driver being disabled. This may result in 
the switch continuing to pass traffic to the attached port rather than route 
the traffic to an active team member port. Disconnecting the disabled 
adapter from the switch allows traffic to resume to the other active team 
members. 
Problem: Large Send Offload (LSO) and Checksum Offload are not 
working on my team. 
Solution: If one of the adapters on a team does not support LSO, LSO 
does not function for the team. Remove the adapter that does not support 
LSO from the team or replace it with one that does. This same solution 
applies to Checksum Offload. 
Problem: The advanced properties of a team do not change after 
changing the advanced properties of an adapter that is a member of the 
team. 
Solution: If an adapter is included as a member of a team and you change 
any advanced property, then you must rebuild the team to ensure that the 
team's advanced properties are properly set. 
Problem: Errors occur when an RSS-enabled adapter is included as a 
member of a team on Windows Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008 
systems. 
Solution: Disable RSS from all members of the team and rebuild the 
team.
